Following the death of her husband, after a painful and prolonged bout of cancer, my sister has been trying to reaffirm her faith in the life process and 'move forward'. One of the things she has been doing is to record, one each day, the positive things in her life that she is grateful for. She calls it her daily gratitude. When things don't go the way we would prefer, we can tend to dwell on them and overlook the positives. So in this instance, the application of reminding herself of good things through her 'gratitudes' has a real practical application.

She gets excited when people read her blog, so just in case you are interested, here's the link:http://ambrosia1966.wordpress.com/2013/09/06/todays-gratitude-6th-september-2013-innocence/
